Sweater Week 1

One of my New Years Resolution is to knit my first sweater. Last year my resolution was to knit socks, which I accomplished with quite a bit of success, this year I am graduating to sweaters. I am knitting the Hooded Sweater on the Lion Brand website. The pattern is labeled easy and so far I think I know what I doing. Here is the first 7 inches of the back of the sweater.
